Okay. I have this bridge that you might be interested in. You take payments.

Fun how 'I won't "rant"' is followed by 'but'.

The claim that you followed it precisely is interesting.

What day did you move on to phase 2? If it wasn't day 14 say goodbye
to following the directions. What's your CCLL if you tried Atkins?
If you can't answer say goodbye to following the directions. Did you
get your cholesterol checked before starting and then wait 6 months
before the next test? If not say goodbye to following the directions.

I've read folks who complained of bad effects, but when questions not
a one actually followed the directions. Anything from not drinking
water on. On the other hand I've read of folks who did follow the
directions and didn't lose, so it's clear low carbing doesn't work
for everyone. Not working is extremely different from getting sick.
